Thyroid Management at The Piedmont Clinic
Boost metabolism and mental clarity by correcting imbalances. Because when your thyroid is off, everything feels off — and you deserve answers that make sense.
Why the Thyroid Matters More Than You Think
Your thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your neck. But don’t let its size fool you — it controls some of the most important functions in your body, including:
Metabolism
Energy levels
Brain function
Weight regulation
Mood and mental clarity
Hair, skin, and digestion
When it’s out of balance, it can throw your whole system into chaos. The problem? Many people have undiagnosed thyroid dysfunction for years — often being told their labs are “normal” while their symptoms get worse.
At The Piedmont Clinic, we dig deeper.
Signs of Thyroid Imbalance
Thyroid issues can show up in sneaky, overlapping ways. You might be struggling with:
Unexplained fatigue
Brain fog or memory issues
Weight gain (even on a clean diet)
Hair thinning or hair loss
Cold sensitivity
Constipation
Depression or anxiety
Dry skin, brittle nails, or puffy face
Irregular or heavy periods
Slow heart rate
Many patients with subclinical hypothyroidism don’t show up on basic tests — which is why we look at the full panel, not just TSH.
Our Approach to Thyroid Testing
We go beyond the surface with comprehensive thyroid labs, including:
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)
Free T3
Free T4
Reverse T3
Thyroid antibodies (TPO, TgAb)
Ferritin, cortisol, and key vitamins that influence thyroid conversion
These give us a complete picture of what’s going on — so we can build a treatment plan that actually makes a difference.
Thyroid Treatment Options
If your thyroid needs support, we offer:
T4-only medications like Synthroid or levothyroxine
T3/T4 combo therapy (like Armour or compounded blends) for better energy and mental clarity
Nutritional guidance to support thyroid hormone conversion
Lifestyle coaching to manage inflammation and autoimmune triggers
Ongoing labs and symptom tracking to fine-tune as you go
We work with you to find the dose and delivery method that fits your life — not the other way around.
What Results Can You Expect?
When thyroid levels are corrected, you can expect:
Sharper mental clarity and fewer “foggy” days
A more stable mood and better emotional resilience
Improved metabolism and easier weight management
Better sleep and more energy throughout the day
Healthier hair, skin, and nails
A sense of control and calm coming back to your body
Most patients notice a difference within 4–6 weeks — and we monitor closely to make sure your levels stay optimized.
Who Needs Thyroid Management?
You might benefit from a thyroid evaluation if you:
Have a family history of thyroid disorders or autoimmune conditions
Are struggling with stubborn weight, mood swings, or fatigue
Have “normal” labs but still feel like something’s off
Are managing PCOS, menopause, or other hormone changes
Have been told it’s “just stress” — but your body says otherwise
